ProprietorVelenje Urban Municipality

Established in 1975, Velenje Library is a public library established by the Velenje Urban Municipality. The library offices and its events unit are housed in a striking building of 1959 which was designed by Oton Gaspari. Besides its public library activities, Velenje Library organises various cultural events within the municipality. Selected cultural programmes are distributed to other Slovene regions and internationally.

The library reading room is located in the new building at Šaleška Street. In addition to book lending the library offers special services such as database browsing, IT/Internet courses and numerous weekly cultural activities for children (weekly fairy tale readings, workshops), teenagers (‘Cool Book’ talks on teen themes, rhetoric workshops) and adults (slide shows, excursions to galleries and talks with writers). A bibliophone service offering automatic book reservation is also available.
